So NERVOUS and irritable has the
czar become that the causes of his
troubles must never be mentioned to
him in any way. In order to obey
his wishes in this respect, the very
newspapers he reads have to be spec
tally prepared. He now receives no
other papers but those expressly
printed for him; the veriest penny
magazines Of old, containing, at best,
II few inoffensive dispatches, the rest
being made up Of society go and
theatrical notes, with, mt best, a
leader or two thrown in, recounting
the blessings of his autocratic gov
ernment, without an Over-strict adj
herence to truth in their enumera-
ton. The editor of this special
sheet, to which the czar is the only
subscriber, and which appears in a
single number, saw no harm in in
serting the reports of the festivities
on the occasion of Emperor Will
liam's ninetieth anniversary, which
caused the czar to eXclaim sadly:
"I shall never live to reach four
score years and ten, and have the
benediction of millions Of my sub.
jects showered upon my head"

THE PROPER WAY.

The correct way to boom a town is
not on wind or gas alone, though
these are an aid but by unlocking
idle capital and putting it into man
ufactories. 1t is very often the case
that men who have made their
money from communities hoard it,
and when called upon to aid the
town by investment complacently
state that they owe the community
nothing. In the way of a debt In
dollars and cents they do not, but
indirectly they do. The communi-
ty that helped them is deserving of
their assistance. Had the citizens
from whom they made they money
been as grasping as they, the entire
community would have remained
poor. 1t is from the generous people,
those who believe in the time hon.
ored axiom Of helping one
another, that these men
have become rich. 1t was the
help given them by liberal citizens
that put into their Golfers the dollars
now boarded and guarded so care
fully. There are too many people
who look to their per cent. before
they will put down their money.
Their self interests blinds them to
their duty as public minded citizens,
and makes them forget that the aid
once rendered them should be re.
paid. The way to make and keep
up real live and perpetual boom is
to unloosen the idle capital and in
vest it in factories that will give
employment to men who will build
small houses in the outer limits of
the city and spend their weeks
wages in groceries and dry goods,
1t is the only legitimate and sure
road to continued prosperity, and is
the history of every place that has
grown from hamlet to Il progress
sive city. Start the wheels Of manu-.
factoring industry with a strong i'm
pulse and the rest will follow.

BIOW-HARDS.

A member OF one of the leading real es-
tate firms in the city said yesterday that it
was quite amusing TO see some Of the near
shore rustlers in the city claiming to make
every big sale that is reported.
Il know of two lads, he continued, ''whO
on hearing of a sale from one man will tell
the very next man they meet that they did
the business. Almost every day they issue
the word OF - & - making nothing less
than SlG0,000 and Dig scheme ahead. Those
kind of sales are becoming proverbial III that
section.
The gentleman then cited several instances
where other firms had made sales from the
one that claimed the credit. He seemed to
think -hards abundant in the profession.

BOULEVARD.

These local lot boomers stalk the streets

special instructions to say nothing about 1t
as he has just made him a bosom friend. 1t
is very easy TO know what they are at or are
attempting TO do. To find cut where there
enterprise is located one needs but to find
where is lot his located-if perchance he Is
able TO hold one down Or see where he has
snap for sale. They are many and cheek
and tongue unlimited"
''Now you have been asking me every day
what knew and long since | could have
tod you scheme but did not want to place
myself in a boat that resemblei some others
that are on the waters. I thought l would
wait until everything was signed up sealed
fact and then I would tell it and not be
troubled about making my word good.
For some weeks, in fact for some months,
the people in the southeast part OF the city
have been discussing the boulevard question
The property owners of that section say they
have the future city park and want it BOOM
ei in such way to draw fine residences in
that direction. As 70 the boulevard the
property owners have decided that it would
be sort OF attraction and identifying that
woul be pre- ftable Asa result they have
decided to open out drive beginning south
of Strong's addition and running it in a
southeast direction about four miles. 1t
will be one hundred feet wide and parked.
Four rows of trees will be one of the attract
i've features. The exact location has been
determined and all tue program has been
completed up to the point of beginning work.
This will be commenced az an early date.
All seem anxious that it should commence at
an early date
when it is completed it will without a
doubt, be one OF the loveliest drives near the
city. While every street and avenue is well
suited for driving purposes, boulevard of
that length and upon which no money viii
be spared for making it one of the incest in
the city"
There is something else of Dimensions
that is working in that section and will be
ready for talking about in earnest in g few
days l don't want to commit myself on
any scheme, but you must remember | did
not start out with that intention, so l will
quit by telling you that one central fact and
wait for Developments
